Picturepark supports the following transformations. Below is an overview of possible output for the listed input file type and corresponding actions.
Picturepark automatically modifies the following:
Page:
Color Conversion Action— The color conversion action is automatically applied in Picturepark when needed. This converts images from CMYK print usage to RGB web usage.
Page:
Rotate Action— You cannot select this rotate action or define properties, as it is automatically applied with predefined settings in Picturepark. Images are auto-rotated based on their Exif values.

Watermark Action— The watermark modification applies and image overlay. You need to store your watermark image (png, gif, tiff) on an absolute path on the server. Then you can define a distance from the four borders in pixel (margin left, margin top, margin right, margin bottom). You can leave the margins empty. You must set the opacity (0.1 to 1) used for transparency and an aspect ratio - the ratio of the width of a shape to its height (e.g. 8:5, 16:10 and 1.6:1 are the same aspect ratio).
Page:
Unsharp Mask Action— The unsharp mask action allows unsharp masking based on the specified amount, radius and threshold. The following values need to be defined: Amount of 1 to 500 percent, Radius of 0.1 to 1000.0 Pixel and Threshold of 1 to 255 levels.
Page:
Rotate Action— You cannot select this the rotate action or define properties, as it is automatically applied with predefined settings in Picturepark, so images are auto-rotated based on their Exif values.
Page:
Resize Action— The resize modification resizes formats to a certain size and is available for all file types (images, video, audio, document).
Page:
Crop Action— The crop modification crops your rectangle dimensions starting at the x:y coordinates.
Page:
Alpha Handling Action— The alpha handling modification takes care of the handling of alpha channels (transparency) in images, so how is transparency in png handled when converted into jpg (which has no transparency).

WebP
WebP offers file sizes that are around 30% smaller than JPEG without a quality gap. It also provides transparency (alpha channel) like PNG, and the ability to animate images like the GIF format. Picturepark only renders the first frame as preview and does not created animated webp.

Avif
AV1 Image File Format (AVIF) is an image file format specification. AVIF supports animations, live photos, and more through multilayer images stored in image sequences. It offers better support for graphical elements, logos, and infographics, where JPEG has limitations. It provides better lossless compression than JPEG.
